THE PROCESS
This Class EA is fulfilling the requirements of the Municipal Engineers Association’s Municipal Class Environmental Assessment planning process (June 2000, as amended in October 2007) – up to and including Phase 2 only, for Schedule B projects.

A Public Information Centre (PIC) will be held to discuss the proposed alternatives, criteria and evaluation methodology.
